Fairchild Dornier 1128

Airliners and Commercial Jet Aircraft

The Fairchild Dornier 1128, sometimes called the 1128JET, was the largest aircraft envisaged in the Fairchild Dornier regional jet family built around the 728. It was conceived as a further stretch of the 928 that would have carried roughly 110 to 120 passengers. It never progressed beyond a concept: the company concentrated on the 728 and 928, and Fairchild Dornier was declared insolvent on 2 April 2002, before any aircraft of the family flew. The 1128 is known only from the variants listed for the 728 family, and no dimensions, engines or schedule were published for it in the sources read.
